x86/asm/entry/64: Use shorter MOVs from segment registers

The "movw %ds,%cx" instruction needs a 0x66 prefix, while
"movl %ds,%ecx" does not.

The difference is that latter form (on 64-bit CPUs)
overwrites the entire %ecx, not only its lower half.

But subsequent code doesn't depend on the value of upper
half of %ecx, so we can safely use the shorter instruction.

The new code is also faster than the old one - now we don't
depend on the old value of %ecx, but this code fragment is
not performance-critical so it does not matter much.
